To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course? With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.

Artificial intelligence (AI) isn’t going to replace people – but people who use AI are going to replace people who don’t. This is the current thinking among executives at companies like IBM, where CEO Arvind Krishna recently said he was going to “selectively” pause hiring for back-office jobs that can be done by AI. AI has been a hot topic in technology for some years now, at least since the emergence of deep learning during the last decade.

Since when has learning and development (L&D) become such a negative experience with its intended learners? Could it be because learners have been conditioned by very poor learning experiences over the past two decades, combined with the kinks of technological innovation? Or is it because learning has typically been designed as a one-size-fits-all solution, despite the fact that humans are not clones?
